Put down the mobile phone, and step away quietly...

for those who bothered to read my spontaneous rant about mobile phone users in cinemas, this is a boring sequel, so click the 'cyprus forums' link and disappear from the hellish bowels of my disapprobation.

Cypriots are obsessed with mobile phones.

There should be a new health warning.

"Danger! Mobile phones can seriously impair your ability to mature and grow up. Coninued pointless texting can impair your mental growth"

Look, whoever it is you are texting, think through this list of pointers first.

1- Unless your leg is stuck underneath the collapsed axle of an Opel Vectra, and your Larynx has momentarily ceased, YOU DONT NEED TO TEXT, so think abou what you are doing before you indulge in your latest obsessive compulsive disorder.

2- They are a waste of money. If you are seeing him within 48 hours...wait to speak in person you impetuous moron.

3- It is incredibly anti-social and rude Oh please, I know we are having a great chat about Freud and the merits of his theory on youth sexuality, but could you just ignore me out the blue and text your mate about the football results. I feel so wanted and valued when you do that

4- Want a fast track to arthritis??? Text your mates for no reason 200 times a day

5- Do with a phone call, what a text fails to perform adequately. We are not stone age neanderthals. Be civilised and call her, if she wants a lift at 9.30.

6 - If your English is shaky, do yourself a favour and avoid sending what skills you possess in the language down the sh1tter and put the phone away. Text messagng is bastardising the english language.

I HATE TEXTING!!

o pmprnikl wots so rong abt spelng dis way?
I know what you mean, pisses me off when my phone beeps constantly (so I now have it on silent) and the worst thing of all? When I have finished speaking and someone sends one back saying OK - now that really irritates me.

It was a great invention at first but now it just annoys me - I'm getting old.

Getting old is cool.

All I want to do is drink gin and tonic, wear a smoking jacket, slippers and smoke a pipe, and say the words 'dear boy' at random intervals for no apparent reason.

That would be tits.
